No, it was a hit all the way. Generally won’t call an error on a misjudged ball where he didn’t put his glove on the ball.

Totally agree, i think it’s awesome people flip because of a loss because especially with Cain or Lincecum on the mound you just expect a win or have a better chance at it, and in my mind the giants will most likely rebound, and just get pissed over this series and take it out against LA and on the road
